CoyoteBlue December 9, 2014 Share December 9, 2014 Man, compared to last season, it feels like there are a lot fewer happy matches and a lot more "Well, the numbers worked out." and pairs where one half was just champing at the bit to go back to a non-match after the show. Poor Ellie. I wanted her to find someone. 3 Link to comment
Racj82 December 9, 2014 Share December 9, 2014 I don't think that's true at all. I mean, the reunion was a different story. But there were a bunch of couple coming out of this show. Not all were because of actual matches. Sure. But, this show is never going to be out just dating the person you match up with. In over all terms, this group left a lot happier, all things considered. Link to comment
Amy Beth December 9, 2014 Share December 9, 2014 Did Tyler get any money? I thought Christina's female match was out of it if Christina matched. Much irony that awful Layton was the one with 2 matches. 3 Link to comment
ZootSuitWyatt December 9, 2014 Share December 9, 2014 I think the other was out if one matched in the truth booth, but they all won if they got it right in the final matchup? I don't remember if this was clearly explained to us. Link to comment
OnceSane December 9, 2014 Author Share December 9, 2014 ZootSuit, that's the way I understood it. If Christina made a match confirmed by the Truth Booth, the double match would be out of the house and out of the money, and vice versa. But if they both made it to the end, and the group figured out 10 matches, everyone wins money, including Christina/double match. Link to comment
SunshineOnMe December 9, 2014 Share December 9, 2014 Does anyone know what couples are still together? Link to comment
OnceSane December 9, 2014 Author Share December 9, 2014 Does anyone know what couples are still together? I'm sure we'll find out who stayed together at the reunion next week. Ugh, Layton couldn't have one moment where he wasn't a dick. Good grief. At least they still won the money. 3 Link to comment
rasan December 9, 2014 Share December 9, 2014 Sadly I honestly think that the show is partially fake.. I think producers told Layton to switch Tyler for Christina in order to make it more thrilling at the end. I think they manipulate with the show, maybe not the whole time but they do. which is sad because I'd appreciate much more if they lose/win by themselves. the calculations are done by computer, early in the game there are no matches (because of number of episodes) THEN they starting to throw some random in and recalcute the next options and finally the producers help the worthless cast and tell them what to do and when. it's a shame.. I like the idea of the show but this is crap. 4 Link to comment
peachmangosteen December 9, 2014 Share December 9, 2014 Does anyone know what couples are still together? I read some spoilers from the reunion that said that no one is together now. Link to comment
SunshineOnMe December 10, 2014 Share December 10, 2014 Thanks Peachmangosteen. Rasan, I thought the same thing about Layton picking Christine. Link to comment
missalanny December 10, 2014 Share December 10, 2014 Rasan, you basically said what I came here to day. So obviously contrived. I almost wish it was real, because I'd love to hate on Christina for pretending like she was shocked when Layton chose her, considering they'd had a conversation about it in the pool, and also hate on Layton, since he made this grand gesture about being a "rock" for Christina and she was making out with Brandon minutes later after they won...and also because Layton just sucks so hard at being a person... but, whatever, it was so phony. I still can't wait for the reunion, because I'm pathetically attached to this show. 2 Link to comment
laschifosavita December 10, 2014 Share December 10, 2014 I agree that this episode was frustratingly fake. I would have loved for Layton to have messed everything up for everyone. I am kind of impressed that they did a decent job of pretending to be surprised, because a lot of them were really pretty obviously drunk at the final ceremony. 2 Link to comment
Indy December 11, 2014 Share December 11, 2014 I call shenanigans with this show too. Someone told Layton to switch with Christina. I think the panicked reactions of everyone else was real, but Layton was told what to do. And quite possibly Christina was told to pick Layton to start as well. Because why on earth wouldn't she have picked someone who had no interest in switching her for whoever they were with - she knew Layton was into her and would switch, possibly screwing them all out of money. If it wasn't producer meddling, she would/should have worked out a plan with one of the guys ahead of time in which she picks them and they say no and stick with their correct match - but that doesn't give as much drama... 1 Link to comment
Racj82 December 14, 2014 Share December 14, 2014 They can't tell people who to choose on here. This is basically a game show. That's illegal. There's money involved in this. Link to comment
peachmangosteen December 14, 2014 Share December 14, 2014 (edited) There is much debate about whether or not these type of reality shows adhere to the Game Show rules. That being said, I doubt they outright told them what to do, but I have no doubt they lead them to certain things. Edited December 14, 2014 by peachmangosteen 1 Link to comment
FineWashables December 15, 2014 Share December 15, 2014 I doubt Layton was led. I really do believe that he's just that big of a douchebag. 2 Link to comment
peachmangosteen December 15, 2014 Share December 15, 2014 (edited) And then there's that! Yea, I don't have a problem believing Layton is just that much of an asshole. Actually, I am fairly confident TPTB didn't have to do a damn thing to get him to do that. Edited December 15, 2014 by peachmangosteen 1 Link to comment
